Transcending All Differences Meditation is a universal act that everyone in this world can do. All can practice it regardless of nationality, religion, or ethnicity. All one needs is a human body. The air is a universal element in this world, in which everyone can breathe. No matter where we go in the planet, we will find air. Meditation is like the air – universal and essential. If we do not close our minds, but rather, consider it carefully, we realize that we can still follow the religion we believe in and incorporate meditation. To not think at all, anyone of any religion in this world can do, whether one is a Buddhist, Christian, Muslim, Hindu, and so on. To not do something is not against the law, is not immoral, and does not go against any ancient tradition. Simply close your eyes and do nothing. In other words, meditate. It is a practice that will bring our lives happiness and fulfillment, which we should take utmost care to preserve
Searching for the Truth In the Pali language, ‘natthi santiparam sukham’ means ‘there is no happiness other than the peace of mind.’ The happiness that one cannot explain with words is the happiness that arises from a still mind in meditation. The attainment of inner happiness is something that everyone can do if we give ourselves the opportunity. Does truth exist? Does true happiness exist? We can discover the answers to these questions and then share them with the world. The first step is to search for the truth. Meditate and clarify the mind. When we do so, happiness will be within reach. It is like when we are about to learn a foreign language. We must forget our native language to learn the new. Study the subject of life in the same manner. You must forget other things temporarily. Then you will discover the many benefits of meditation. This knowledge is the universal knowledge that everyone has the right to learn. We must seek the answers within ourselves, by ourselves. We will be both the student and the teacher. The library of true knowledge is within us. It can be accessed by closing your eyes and expanding the mind. If you search for the answer, you will find it. Therefore, if people in the world temporarily forget their differences in religion, personal beliefs, traditions, customs, or cultures, and allow their minds to open, they can begin practising meditation and reaching true inner happiness. There are many religious followers who have opened their minds to the practice of meditation. Their perception of the world evolved from one of suffering to indescribable happiness. More and more people, adults and children, are beginning to experience this as they open their minds and follow the right principles.
Different Shells but the Same Core Differences arise as we grow up and start to recognise the variation in nationality, religion, race, skin colour, social status, appearance, etc. Differences can contribute to division and conflict. But once we close our eyes, the differences disappear. Thus, we should close our eyes to seek the universal happiness inside. When we see the universal truth, all differences will become insignificant. The conflicts in this world will vanish. We will think, speak, and act in harmony. In other words, we will think only about virtuous deeds, resulting in the progression of good Dhamma. Goodwill and fellowship will arise. People will seek happiness from giving, not just by taking or receiving. It will be as if there are no borders. We will all feel a sense of belonging to the same brotherhood.
The Universal Sentiment Expressed By Luangphaw Dhammajayo
People may have external differences, but their innermost self is the same. It is the similarities that transcend their differences. Nationality or religion does not matter. After they bring their minds to a standstill, all of them describe the same feeling: that meditation brings about great unlimited happiness that they have never encountered before. If everyone in the world has the same goal or dream of seeing true peace in the world, a world with no borders, no soldiers, no police, a world where people have only love and good wishes for each other, true peace will not be difficult to achieve. True world peace begins with inner peace, when our minds are still and calm. Once everyone can do this, true world peace can happen at this very moment. To share in the same dream, we must learn and experience meditation altogether. However, people cannot communicate effectively with one another yet. There are many barriers in our communication, such as custom, tradition, culture, language and geography. If we can overcome these barriers and communicate to the world about how to still the mind, we will have true world peace. This is not just a dream, but a determination to make it a reality.

Greeting from Middleway Meditation
Transcending All Differences
Meditation is a universal act that
everyone in this world can do.
All can practice it regardless of nationality, religion, or
ethnicity. All one needs is a human body. The air is a
universal element in this world, in which everyone
can breathe. No matter where we go in the planet,
we will find air. Meditation is like the air – universal
and essential.
If we do not close our minds, but rather,
consider it carefully, we realize that we can still
follow the religion we believe in and incorporate
meditation. To not think at all, anyone of any
religion in this world can do, whether one is a
Buddhist, Christian, Muslim, Hindu, and so on.
To not do something is not against the law, is not
immoral, and does not go against any ancient
tradition. Simply close your eyes and do nothing.
In other words, meditate. It is a practice that will
bring our lives happiness and fulfillment, which
we should take utmost care to preserve

Searching for the Truth
In the Pali language, ‘natthi santiparam
sukham’ means ‘there is no happiness other
than the peace of mind.’ The happiness
that one cannot explain with words is the
happiness that arises from a still mind
in meditation. The attainment of inner
happiness is something that everyone
can do if we give ourselves the opportunity.
Does truth exist? Does true happiness exist? We
can discover the answers to these questions and
then share them with the world.
The first step is to search for the truth.
Meditate and clarify the mind. When we do so,
happiness will be within reach. It is like when we
are about to learn a foreign language. We must
forget our native language to learn the new. Study
the subject of life in the same manner. You must
forget other things temporarily. Then you will
discover the many benefits of meditation.
This knowledge is the universal knowledge
that everyone has the right to learn. We must seek
the answers within ourselves, by ourselves. We will
be both the student and the teacher. The library
of true knowledge is within us. It can be accessed
by closing your eyes and expanding the mind. If
you search for the answer, you will find it.
Therefore, if people in the world temporarily
forget their differences in religion, personal
beliefs, traditions, customs, or cultures, and allow
their minds to open, they can begin practising
meditation and reaching true inner happiness.
There are many religious followers who have
opened their minds to the practice of meditation.
Their perception of the world evolved from one
of suffering to indescribable happiness. More and
more people, adults and children, are beginning
to experience this as they open their minds and
follow the right principles.
